Great trip - Hidden away like a well-kept secret in Arequipa, the Salinas National Reserve is a must-go destination that offers a unique and blissful escape. As a traveler seeking beauty off the beaten path, this haven proved to be a rare gem. What makes this experience special is the tranquility that envelopes you, a serene sanctuary away from the bustle of popular tourist spots. While many opt for the famed Colca Canyon, Salinas remains a quiet oasis where the connection between human heritage and the land's wonders is palpable.

Exploring Salinas - My expedition to Salinas National Reserve in Arequipa was an absolute gem. The mesmerizing salt flats and their intricate patterns created a surreal landscape that felt like stepping into another world. The solitude of the surroundings provided a perfect opportunity for self-reflection, and the guided tour offered valuable insights into the reserve's history and unique ecosystem.

Salinas national reserve - Our journey to Salinas National Reserve in Arequipa was an absolute delight that left us enchanted and rejuvenated. From the moment we set foot in this natural haven, we were mesmerized by the breathtaking landscapes that unfolded before us. The salt flats, with their intricate patterns and glistening salt crystals, felt like a serene canvas painted by nature itself. As a couple, we reveled in the tranquility of the surroundings, hand in hand, as we explored the unique ecosystem that supports vibrant birdlife and local wildlife. The guided tour was informative and engaging, allowing us to grasp the historical and geological significance of the reserve. Witnessing the traditional salt harvesting methods employed by the local community was not only educational but also deeply inspiring. Our visit to Salinas was a harmonious blend of natural beauty, cultural immersion, and romantic moments, making it an experience we will cherish for a lifetime.

Regular tour - Cool ride, but if you are with little time it is dispensable. Me and my husband had a really bad time with the bad altitude. Hanss, he was our guide, he was very concerned about us. He also demonstrated a lot of knowledge about what he explained
